What can we learn from European best practices on the existing M&V schemes and coordination mechanisms in Europe? Why do countries without an established centralized structure implement more efficient M&V schemes? Which countries have introduced more efficient coordination mechanisms, and what are their functioning structures?

How to evaluate the impact of energy efficiency measures and the achievement of energy efficiency targets on national, regional or local level? The multEE project has compiled a comprehensive report with a variety of methods to calculate energy savings from single energy efficiency measures.

The monitoring of energy efficiency targets at local, regional or national level requires assessing the impacts of energy efficiency policies and measures in terms of energy savings and consequently their contribution to the energy efficiency target.

Possible impacts of such policies and measures can, on the one hand, be assessed top down. On the other hand, so called bottom-up methods can be used to assess the impact of single energy efficiency measures.

This training manual describes the basics of the MVP web application platform, which should become the central database of implemented energy efficiency projects. Thematerial covers the philosophy, general data structure and architecture of the application,all important for understanding the subject matter. The main purpose of the material,together with the practical part of the training, is to familiarize future users and /or administrators with the basics.

The report presents the results of the mapping of the existing M&V schemes and coordination mechanism in the 28 Member States plus the FYR of Macedonia. The collection of the data for the mapping and the analysis of the existing M&V schemes and coordination mechanisms were performed with a common methodology, which was based on a specialized questionnaire.

The current report aims at the establishment of the appropriate framework for the effective identification and evaluation of the existing M&V schemes and coordination mechanisms in the EU28 and the FYR of Macedonia.

This framework will allow the project to map and analyse the existing M&V schemes and coordination mechanisms, thus leading to the analysis of the identified best practices on existing M&V schemes and coordination mechanisms at a later stage.

MVP Tutorial Video

The multEE Monitoring and Verification Platform (MVP) allows authorities to consistently measure progress towards energy efficiency targets. This tutorial explains why the application was created, what its main functionalities are and what kind of information it provides to the authorities using it.
